Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel liquid polyfunctional additives of low volatility, to compositions comprising an organic material, preferably a fuel or lubricant, or a polymer, and the said additives, and to the use thereof and the method of stabilizing organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation, and for reducing friction.
  • the stabilization especially that of lubricants or plastics, with antioxidants from the series of the sterically hindered phenols or their reaction products with other compounds is known, for example, from US-A-3,839,278, US-A-4,032,562, US-A-4,058,502, US-A-4,093,587, US-A-4, 132,702, US-A-5,478,875 and EP-A-0 644 195.
  • WO 91/13134 describes a method of improving the solubility of antioxidants in a second medium.
  • US-A-5,380,890 discloses stabilizer mixtures in which the antioxidant active group amounts only to up to 20 per cent by weight. Such stabilizer mixtures, however, in some cases have the feature that they crystallize out after 2 to 3 weeks at room temperature and are therefore no longer flowable. There is therefore a need for stabilizer mixtures having a higher proportion of antioxidant active group and a better stability on storage, so that the product is still pumpable in the liquid state even after weeks.

Description

Liquid polvfunctional additives
The present invention relates to novel liquid polyfunctional additives of low volatility, to compositions comprising an organic material, preferably a fuel or lubricant, or a polymer, and the said additives, and to the use thereof and the method of stabilizing organic materials against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation, and for reducing friction.
The stabilization, especially that of lubricants or plastics, with antioxidants from the series of the sterically hindered phenols or their reaction products with other compounds is known, for example, from US-A-3,839,278, US-A-4,032,562, US-A-4,058,502, US-A-4,093,587, US-A-4, 132,702, US-A-5,478,875 and EP-A-0 644 195.
WO 91/13134 describes a method of improving the solubility of antioxidants in a second medium.
US-A-5,380,890 discloses stabilizer mixtures in which the antioxidant active group amounts only to up to 20 per cent by weight. Such stabilizer mixtures, however, in some cases have the feature that they crystallize out after 2 to 3 weeks at room temperature and are therefore no longer flowable. There is therefore a need for stabilizer mixtures having a higher proportion of antioxidant active group and a better stability on storage, so that the product is still pumpable in the liquid state even after weeks.
There is likewise a search for compounds which combine their stabilizing properties with a friction-reducing effect. This additional property is achieved by means of free aliphatic OH groups, which bind the compound to the metallic (for example) surface to be protected and so position themselves between the surfaces at risk of frictional wear.
The present invention relates to a product obtainable by reacting components a), b), c) and, if desired, d), where component a) is a compound of the formula I or a mixture of compounds of the formula I, component b) is a compound of the formula II or a mixture of compounds of the formula II, component c) is a component of the formula Ilia and/or of the formula Illb or a mixture of compounds of the formula Ilia and/or Illb, and component d) is a compound of the formula IV or a mixture of compounds of the formula IV, Q-C-0-Ro R9-C-G

The support substances from the series of the said alkaline earth metal compounds can be present in hydrated or anhydrous form, the hydrated forms being preferred.
Judicious supported catalysts are those comprising the oxides, hydroxides, aluminates or silicates of the alkaline earth metals Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba, or mixtures thereof, as supports.
Particularly judicious supports are the compounds MgO, Mg(OH)2, CaO, Ca(OH) , BaO, Ba(OH)2, Ba(OH)2-8H2O, calcined dolomite MgO-CaO, calcined and hydrated dolomite MgCa(OH)4, calcined barytocalcite BaO-CaO, calcined and hydrated barytocalcite BaCa(OH)4> spinel MgAI2O4, MgAI2O4-nH2O, CaAI2O4, CaAI2O4-nH2O, hydrocalumite 2Ca(OH)2-AI(OH)3-nH2O, Ca2SiO4, hillebrandite Ca2SiO4-H2O, foshagite and mixtures thereof.

The invention additionally provides compositions comprising an organic material sensitive to oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation and at least one product obtainable by reacting components a), b), c) and, if used, d), and provides for the use of these products for stabilizing organic material against oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation.
The invention therefore also embraces a method of stabilizing organic material against thermal, oxidative or light-induced degradation which comprises adding to this material at least one product obtainable by reacting components a), b), c) and, if used, d).
Of particular interest is the use of these products as antioxidants in organic materials.
Preferred organic materials are polymers, e.g. synthetic polymers, and especially thermoplastic polymers. Particularly preferred organic materials are polyolefins and styrene copolymers, such as those indicated above in sections 1 to 3 and in sections 6 and 7, especially polyethylene and polypropylene, and also ABS and styrene-butadiene copolymers. The invention therefore preferably provides compositions in which the organic material is a synthetic organic polymer or a mixture of such polymers, especially a polyolefin or a styrene copolymer.
In general, the products are added to the material to be stabilized in amounts from 0.01 to 10%, preferably from 0.01 to 5% and, in particular, from 0.01 to 2%, based on the overall weight of the material to be stabilized. Particular preference is given to the use of the products of the invention in amounts from 0.01 to 0.5%, especially from 0.05 to 0.3%. - 20 -
The invention also provides compositions comprising α) an organic material subject to oxidative, thermal or light-induced degradation and β) at least one product of the invention.
Component α) can be an oxygen-containing or non-oxygen hydrocarbon fuel, a lubricant, a hydraulic fluid, a metalworking fluid or a synthetic polymer. Mixtures of the respective components α) are also possible.
As already mentioned, the products of the invention [component (β)] also possess wear- and corrosion-inhibiting properties in fuels. Particular mention should be made of the outstanding increase which they bring about in the lubricity (antiwear properties) of fuels with a low sulfur and/or aromatics content.
The present invention therefore also provides for the use of the products of component (β) as antiwear additives in an engine fuel system.
In general, the products of component (β) are added in an amount from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.001 to 5 %, and in particular, from 0.005 to 1%, based on the weight of component (α), to the fuel.
The products of component (β) can also be mixed with liquid carriers that are compatible with the end-product fuels in order to produce concentrates which can subsequently be added to base fuels or formulated fuels. Such concentrates may facilitate the mixing, combination, pouring or transfer (en masse or in units/portions) of the products of component (β).
The carriers are customarily organic solvents for the products of component (β), examples being hydrocarbons such as xylene or toluene, ethers, alcohols or mixtures thereof, or they can be constituents of the base fuels or of the formulated fuels which are desired as end products. The addition of the concentrates to the base materials of formulated fuels in order to obtain end-product fuels can be made batchwise: for example, from unit containers with concentrates that are obtainable from retail outlets or other points of sale; or by metered additions in refineries or fuel distribution outlets. Other modes of addition are likewise possible. - 21 -
The products of component (β) may be present in different amounts in the concentrate, depending on the desired properties of the concentrate, such as its viscosity. A suitable amount in the carrier medium, in general, is from approximately 10 to 90% by weight, more usually from approximately 20 to 50% by weight, of the products of component (β).
The end-product fuels can be hydrocarbons, oxygen-containing compounds or mixtures thereof. The hydrocarbon fractions which can be used for the fuel compositions include distillate fuels whose boiling points are in the kerosine and gas-oil range (165 to 565°C). Customary middle-distillate fuels of this kind include road diesel and other diesel oils having boiling points in the range from 200 to 370°C, and also jet fuels, kerosines, gas-oil and cycle oils. Middle-distillate fuels of this kind can be straight-run distillate oils, catalyticaily or thermally cracked distillate fuel oils, or mixtures of straight-run combustion oils/heavy oils/heating oils/oils, naphthas and similar materials with cracked distillate materials. These fuels are normally derived from petroleum, but may also derive at least in part from other sources, examples being shale, tar sands, coal, lignite, biomass and the like. The fuels may include a proportion of oxygen-containing co-components, for example alcohols or ethers, including methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). The fuels may also comprise in their entirety oxygen-containing compounds such as methanol and/or ethanol. Also suitable are those fuels which have been subjected to conventional treatment processes, for example a treatment with an acid or base, hydrogenation, solvent refining, or an earthing treatment.
Of particular interest are compositions in which component (α) is a diesel fuel.
The fuels can be employed, for example, in the operation of jet, motor-vehicle, gas turbine or diesel engines. In one preferred embodiment of this invention a fuel is used which is suitable for use in a diesel engine.
The composition of these diesel fuels is highly variable, in accordance with the nature of the crude oil, the refining process, the components with which the crude oil is mixed, and the climate in which the fuel is to be sold. As noted earlier above, this invention is employed primarily in the diesel fuels of reduced sulfur content and/or aromatics content which are produced nowadays to comply with local statutory requirements/regulations. These fuels normally have a sulfur content of less than 500 ppm (0.05%) and/or an aromatics content of less than 35% by weight. - 22 -
Consequently, compositions of particular interest include those in which component (α) is a fuel which contains less than 0.10% by weight, preferably less than 0.05 % by weight and, in particular, less than 0.01% by weight of sulfur.
The composition of the fuel, and hence also its inherent lubricity, can vary in accordance with the level of requirements of the local statutory regulations.
The invention is also employed in aviation fuels, for example in those which generally are used in jet turbine engines. Fuels of this kind have a composition close to that of the diesel oils with a low content of aromatics and of sulfur. The addition of the products of component (β) according to the invention to these fuels may reduce wear in the engine.
The invention can also be employed in lead-free or reformed automotive fuels which are now generally used in aircraft piston engines and in motor vehicles. The addition of the products of component (β) to these fuels may improve engine performance, and makes it possible to employ the fuel in place of leaded fuels, in use for example in aircraft piston engines where leaded fuel is currently used.
Therefore, the present invention also provides a method of reducing wear in an engine fuel system, which comprises adding a product of component (β) to the fuel.
In addition to the products of component (β) the compositions of the invention may also include conventional additives which are added in order to improve still further the basic properties of the fuel, as is described in the handbook "Lubricant and Fuel Additives", Kline & Company Inc., International Business Consultants, Fairfield, NJ, USA, pages 309 - 320 (1990). These additives include: antioxidants, metal passivators, rust inhibitors, viscosity improvers, pour-point depressants, dispersants, detergents, high-pressure additives, friction- reducing additives, antiwear additives, demulsifiers, cloud-point depressants, waxlike antisettling additives, antistatic additives, defoamers, evaporation additives, biocides, odour masks, colorants, ignition accelerators, antifreezes, antiknock additives, conductivity improvers, PFI/IVD purity additives, and other lubricity additives. - 23 -

The conventional additives are added, for example, in concentrations of from 0.01 to 10%, based on the overall weight of the material to be stabilized.
The products and any further additives can be incorporated into the organic material in accordance with known methods. Incorporation into the materials can take place, for example, by mixing in the products and any other additives, or applying them, by methods customary in the art. Where the materials are polymers, especially synthetic polymers, incorporation can take place before or during the shaping operation, or by applying the dissolved or dispersed products to the polymers, with or without subsequent evaporation of the solvent. In the case of elastomers, these can also be stabilized as latices. A further possibility for incorporating the products of the invention into polymers is to add them before, during or directly after the polymerization of the corresponding monomers, or prior - 34 -
to crosslinking. The products of the invention can in this case be added as they are or else in encapsulated form (for example, in waxes, oils or polymers). If they are added before or during polymerization, the products of the invention can also act as chain length regulators for the polymers (chain terminators). The products of the invention can also be added in the form of a masterbatch comprising, for example, a concentration of from 2.5 to 25% by weight of these products to the materials that are to be stabilized.
The materials which have been stabilized in this manner can be employed in a multitude of forms: for example, in the form of films, fibres, tapes, moulding compounds or sections, or as binders for coating materials, adhesives or cements.
Preference is given to compositions of the invention comprising α) a lubricant, a hydraulic fluid, a metalworking fluid or a fuel, for example for driving engines of the 4-stroke Otto, 2-stroke, diesel, Wankel and Orbital type, and β) at least one product of the invention.
Particularly preferred lubricants are the mineral oils, the synthetic oils, or mixtures thereof.
The products known per se are used from the series of the lubricants, the hydraulic fluids and the metalworking fluids.
The lubricants and hydraulic fluids which are suitable are familiar to those skilled in the art and are described, for example, in Dieter Klamann "Schmierstoffe und verwandte Produkte", Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1982, in Schewe-Kobek, "Das Schmiermittel-Taschenbuch", Dr. Alfred Hϋthig-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1974, Oder in "Ullmanns Encyklopadie der technischen Chemie", volume 13, pages 85-94 (Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1977).
Examples of these are lubricants and hydraulic fluids based on mineral oil, or synthetic lubricants or hydraulic fluids, especially those which are derivatives of carboxylic esters and are used at temperatures of 200°C or more.
Examples of synthetic lubricants embrace lubricants based on a diester of a dibasic acid with a monovalent alcohol, for example dioctyl sebacate or dinonyl adipate, on a triester of trimethylolpropane with a monobasic acid or with a mixture of such acids, for example - 35 -
trimethylolpropane tripelargonate, trimethylolpropane tricaprylate or mixtures thereof, on a tetraester of pentaerythritol with a monobasic acid or with a mixture of such acids, such as pentaerythrityl tetracaprylate, or on a complex ester of monobasic and dibasic acids with polyhydric alcohols, such as a complex ester of trimethylolpropane with caprylic and sebacic acids, or of a mixture thereof.
Particularly suitable examples besides mineral oils are poly-α-olefins, ester-based lubricants, phosphates, glycols, polyglycols and polyalkylene glycols, and mixtures of these with water.
The products of the invention are oils and are readily soluble in lubricants, and therefore particularly suitable as additives to lubricants, and mention should be made of their surprisingly good antioxidative and anticorrosive action.
For example, in lubricants for combustion engines, for example in combustion engines operating in accordance with the Otto principle, the products of the invention are able to display their surprising properties. For instance, in lubricating oils the products of the invention prevent the formation of deposits (sludge) or reduce these deposits to a surprising extent.
So-called masterbatches/blends/premixes can also be prepared.
Even when using very small amounts, the products of the invention are active as additives in lubricants. They are admixed to the lubricants judiciously in amounts from 0.01 to 5% by weight, preferably in an amount from 0.05 to 3% by weight and, with particular preference, in an amount from 0.1 to 2% by weight, based in each case on the lubricant.
The lubricants may additionally comprise other additives which are added to improve the basic properties of lubricants still further; they include: antioxidants, metal passivators, rust inhibitors, viscosity index improvers, pour-point depressants, dispersants, detergents, high- pressure additives, antifriction additives and antiwear additives.

Example 11 : Preparation of the liquid antioxidant derivative with dodecenylsuccinic anhydride and methyl 3-(3'-tert-butyl-5'-methyl-4'-hydroxyphenyl)propionate and diglycerol
A mixture of 75.1 g (0.3 mol) of methyl 3-(3'-tert-butyl-5'-methyl-4'-hydroxyphenyl)propionate and 16.1 g (0.1 mol) of diglycerol in a sulfonation flask provided with descending condenser and mechanical stirrer is heated to an internal temperature of 125°C. 0.1 g of lithium amide is added, after which the mixture is left to react at 160°C for four hours, with marked elimination of methanol. Then 26.6 g (0.1 mol) of dodecenylsuccinic anhydride as a solution in 30 ml of toluene are added dropwise at 160°C over the course of 20 minutes. The solvent is distilled off and the reaction mixture is held at 160°C for a further hour. The brown reaction mixture is taken up in 200 ml of toluene and the organic phase is washed with three times 100 ml of water and then dried over 15 g of sodium sulfate. The mixture is filtered and the filtrate is concentrated. Drying takes place at 80°C under a high vacuum. This gives 1 17.6 g of a brown oil. 46 -

A mixture of 31.01 g (0.180 mol) of methyl pelargonate and 14.21 g (0.154 mol) of glycerol is charged to a sulfonation flask provided with reflux condenser and a mechanical stirrer, 52.64 g (0.180 mol) of methyl 3-(3'-5'-di-t-butyl-4'-hydroxyphenyl)propionate and 1.7 g (0.004 mol) of lithium methoxide solution (10%) are added, and the mixture is held under nitrogen at 180-190°C for 14 hours. The reaction mixture is taken up in 80 ml of toluene, neutralized with aqueous citric acid and then washed with water. The organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and isolated by filtration. Drying gives 80.3 g (95% of theory) of product with a refractive index nD 20 of 1.4966.
Example A: Deposit and oxidation panel test (DOPT)
The deposit and oxidation panel test (DOPT) is a variant of a test method for engine oils, in particular for diesel engine oils, which has been described by G. Abellaneda et al., Illrd Symposium CEC, 1989, 61 , New Cavendish Street, London W1 M 8AR, England. It tests the suitability of the oils with stabilizer for preventing deposits on the piston.
The test duration is 20 hours, the panel temperature is 260°C and the oil flow 1 ml/minute. The humid air atmosphere is enriched with 260 ppm of NO2 and 26 ppm of SO2. After the test, the metal panel onto which the oil drops is weighed and assessed visually. The lower the weight the better. The lubricating oil used is a commercial CD oil which is diluted with the basic oil STANCO 150®. The stabilizers of the invention are admixed in an amount of 1.6% by weight, based on the oil, to this prepared oil, which is then subjected to a DOPT test. 47
The results are summerized in Table 1.

The products of the invention exhibit a good stabilizing effect.
Example B:
Reduction of friction losses in the so called elasto hydrodynamic (EHD) regime
The test method has been described in great details in SAE 962037, page 87, written by S. Gunsel, M. Smeeth and H. Spikes.
For the measurement of the friction coefficient of the lubricants, a lubricated contact between a flat steel disk of controlled surface roughness (0.15 +/- 0.03 μm) and a 19 mm diameter steel ball (roughness 0.03 +/- 0.01 μm) is used. Both the disk and the ball are being rotated independently which allows to set a well control of the relative motion of rolling and sliding. Strain gauges are built in the driving systems and the recorded measurements of loads, speeds and torques allow a calculation of the friction coefficient as a function of load, sliding- rolling ratio, speed and temperature. The lower the friction coefficient of a lubricant the highest is its performance regarding fuel economy. 48
The results are summerized in Table 2.

(7) 0.67 0.120 0.098 0.062
Figure imgf000050_0001
Temperature = 80°C; Load = 30 N; Sliding to rolling ratio: 50 Base fluid is a mineral oil, solvent neutral of the viscosity class VG 46.
It can be concluded from Tables 1 and 2 that the new components contribute to the stabilization of the lubricant, retarding the formation of degradation by-products and of deposits and that they also reduce friction losses in lubricated contacts. This is their contribution to fuel economy.
